      [The Independent reports](https://uk.news.yahoo.com/us-warns-send-fighter-jets-162252935.html): The United States could alter its decades-old North American Aerospace Defense Command deal with Canada should its government backtrack on the purchase of 88 Lockheed Martin F-35 fighter jets, the U.S. ambassador to Canada has warned.

      In the latest back-and-forth between the U.S. and Canada over the deal, Ambassador Pete Hoekstra cautioned that if Canada purchased fewer fighter jets, the U.S. would “fill those gaps” in security concerns.

      That could mean the U.S. would need to purchase more F-35 fighter jets for its own use and use them to intervene in Canadian airspace more frequently.

      Yahoo news citing The Independent has to be the least credible source I have ever seen.

      The article just says if Canada doesn’t buy the jets the US will use its own forces so there isn’t a fighter coverage gap. The US and Canada already share their airspaces. This isn’t news. That’s literally the purpose of NORAD. The article title purposefully makes it sound like the US would be attacking. Come on.

      We’re already in NORAD. Armed US fighter jets already patrol Canadian airspace. The command structure makes them responsive to the Prime Minister in certain situations.

      What, you mean there are consequences to Trump calling Canada the 51st State?

      This is an invented story with an invented clickbait drama headline. The source shouldn’t be allowed

      This article makes no sense. US jets already patrol Canadian airspace as a part of NORAD. If Canada doesn’t spend money with the US on jets, the US will…. checks notes… Spend even more money than currently doing on more of the same business as usual?l
